The MSIP Accelerator Programme helps Scottish start-ups to develop new solutions to climate change, and is delivered by SHFCA member, Michelin Scotland Innovation Parc, as the Scottish partner of DER-IC.
The MSIP Accelerator is an intense business accelerator designed to help ambitious young companies who are developing new solutions in sustainable mobility and decarbonisation achieve a step-change in their business. Applications for the 3rd cohort of its fully subsidised Accelerator Programme close on 1st July.
The 3rd cohort of this fully subsidised programme is due to start in August, and participating companies will get access to MSIP’s Innovation Lab facilities when they are launched. The 16-week programme is delivered mainly virtually, with some time spent physically at the MSIP's state-of-the-art facilities in Dundee.
The MSIP Accelerator Programme has delivered excellent results over the last 2 cohorts with 45 new jobs created, 23 Grants/prizes awarded, almost £1m worth of grant funding accessed, and over £1m of investment raised.
The Accelerator Programme brings together a diverse and complimentary cohort of companies. Areas of specific interest for Cohort 3 include:
- Smart Mobility
- Micro Mobiliy
- Renewable Fuels and Energy
- Recycling Technologies, and
- Energy Monitoring & Management.
